In the previous season, Shane Gersich, Austin Poganski, Christian Wolanin, and Rhett Gardner are back as four of the top seven point scorers on the roster, while the other three scorers of those top seven; Tyson Jost, Brock Boeser, and Tucker Poolman have all moved on to NHL teams. Gersich led the team in goal scoring last season with 21, to go with 16 assists for 47 total points, which also led the team. The Fighting Hawks have a strong squad returning with plenty of big game experience.
